Gamma Kernel Estimators for Density and Hazard Rate of Right-Censored Data
The nonparametric estimation for the density and hazard rate functions for right-censored data using the kernel smoothing techniques is considered. The “classical” fixed symmetric kernel type estimator of these functions performs well in the interior region, but it suffers from the problem of bias in the boundary region. Here, we propose new estimators based on the gamma kernels for the density...
متن کاملSiZer for Censored Density and Hazard Estimation
The SiZer method is extended to nonparametric hazard estimation and also to censored density and hazard estimation. The new method allows quick, visual statistical inference about the important issue of statistically significant increases and decreases in the smooth curve estimate. Instead of being straightforward, this extension has required the opening of a new avenue of research on the inter...
متن کاملDensity and hazard rate estimation for right censored data using wavelet methods
This paper describes a wavelet method for the estimation of density and hazard rate functions from randomly right censored data. We adopt a nonparametric approach in assuming that the density and hazard rate have no speci c parametric form. The method is based on dividing the time axis into a dyadic number of intervals and then counting the number of events within each interval. The number of e...
متن کاملA Bayesian Approach for Bandwidth Selection in Kernel Density Estimation with Censored Data
Estimating an unknown probability density function is a common problem arising frequently in many scientific disciplines. Among many density estimation methods, the kernel density estimators are widely used. However, the classical kernel density estimators suffer from an intrinsic problem as they assign positive values outside the support of the target density. This problem is commonly known as...
متن کاملUniform-in-bandwidth kernel estimation for censored data
We present a sharp uniform-in-bandwidth functional limit law for the increments of the Kaplan-Meier empirical process based upon right-censored random data. We apply this result to obtain limit laws for nonparametric kernel estimators of local functionals of lifetime densities, which are uniform with respect to the choices of bandwidth and kernel. These are established in the framework of conve...
